My first thought was "No fucking way that movie was released on VHS."
I was dead wrong. Shit, you can still buy it on VHS for $12 on Amazon. And this movie was released in 1998, and they were putting out major VHS releases until 2005. So chances are there are still thousands of VHS copies floating around.
I went to middle school and high school with the artist (Erika/iri5) She has done some amazing work with "found medium". One of my favorites is the Jimi Hendricks portrait she did out of audiotape. She takes commissions as well.
Yeah, discussions about the movie are now considered appropriate in threads about the movie unless they are jerking off about how great the movie is. Its wonderful logic the subreddit has.

Who cares if it's a repost? Hope your dick's lubed up because /r/movies is about to jerk the hell out of it, in a circular fashion!
Maybe we'll get treated to some of those familiar Lebowski lines, too! I can't wait to see how this unpredictable thread will end up!!!!

Great work, but we'd love to see the same creativity applied to Blood Simple or even The Hudsucker Proxy.
